  • Staying Fit with Numbers

    Posted on February 1st, 2010 Martin Bolduc No comments

    Many times it happen that we spend so much time practicing  a weight loss program but cannot get significant results. This is mainly because we stick to our weight loss program during gym hours but somehow forget to follow them during hours outside gym.
    Keep in mind that the nutrition & lifestyle we follow outside the gym environment greatly impacts the results of our weight loss program. Target setting is a very important factor and in order to achieve effective weight loss, we need to set some targets and stick to them during gym hours as well as outside gym hours.

    The Number Game:

    In order to stay fit with numbers, we need to understand the number game.

    • Total hours per week = 7 days x 24 hours each = 168 hours/week
    • Wake up hours per week = 168 total – (8hours per day X 7 days) = 112 hours Awake in General
    • Gym Hours per week = 5 hours/week at the gym (if you train 5 days a week for 60 minutes)
    • Outside Gym Hours = 112 hours awake  5 hours at the  gym = 107  hours left outside the gym.

    The nutrition you take and the lifestyle you follow during these 107 outside gym hours are the deciding factor for your weight loss goals.

    Nutrition

    The nutrition you take outside gym hours is very much important for achieving quick weight loss. Experts suggest taking meals at regular intervals – after every 2 1/2 to 3  hours including three routine meals of the day. This helps in weight loss by keeping metabolism active and energy level high – keep your blood sugar more stable. Similarly if you eat balanced nutrition after workouts then it will help your body recover by making up the glycogen level lost during extensive workout sessions.

    Lifestyle

    Your weight loss results are really dependent on your lifestyle outside the  gym. Muscle development mainly takes place during rest so you should give your body enough rest time. Keeping a check on your lifestyle and monitoring it accordingly will help you achieve fat loss goal by changing the routine as per outcome.
